    First ever handgun was Pietta 1851 Navy as a gift (Christmas sale so it was like retail $180).

    First cartridge handgun is a Ballester Molina that is in route to LGS right now for $300.

    Both obtained this year.

    My First one was free. I want to thank all the tax payers for my Colt 1911A1. Of course I never got to fire it much, two or three times a year for a couple years at the range. The first one I paid for was (is still with me) Ruger P85 9MM. It is a super tanker of a gun I gave 300.00 for it about 5 years ago.

    It was 26 years ago, I got a Smith and Wesson 422 .22 pistol with the 6-ish" barrel from my parents for Christmas, black with wood grips. Still have it, still one of my favorites. Would never sell it. If i remember correctly it was under 200.00 but it was a present so I am not sure.
